Last night the media focus shifted from the 92 deaths in Friday's Oslo bombing and shootings on Utoeya Island to the motives of the suspect, Anders Behring Breivik.
The catalyst was a 1500-page "manifesto", titled 2083: A European Declaration of Independence, linked to Breivik, with a description of Europe's "civil war" and the ultimate objective of a Muslim-free continent. To get there, Breivik offers advice such as how to build bombs and make poisons and how to use video games to hone shooting skills. He apparently lays out a detailed description of planning for Friday's attacks --- the last entry is dated 22 July 2011.

The manifesto, which was obtained from a far-right website, is attributed to "Andrew Berwick Justiciar Knight Commander" and datelined "London 2011". "Berwick", whom Norwegian media say is Breivik, says the manifesto took three years to write. At the end of the book are pictures of Breivik, dressed as a hero of the Knights Templar and then posing with an assault rifle.
A video version of the Manifesto is also appearing across the Internet.
Yesterday Breivik's defence lawyer said his client had admitted responsibility: "He has said that he believed the actions were atrocious, but that in his head they were necessary."
A court hearing will be held tomorrow.
